This is something I'd be happy to help out with.

I can also offer a decently spec'd linux x86_64 machine, and a
functional OS X x86_64 Mountain Lion machine too. If possible I'll
offer my ARMv7 board as well, which currently fails late in the stage2
build on DPH. I haven't figured that one out just yet. All these can
all be available on a regular

If someone could point me to the build bot script that we run today
that would be a great start.

If Bryan and Johan are the Performance Tsars the future looks bright. Or at
least fast. Thank you.

They do offer the prospect of fixing some annoying bugs for free, by
offloading them to existing, working system infrastructure. For i

I'll pitch in with this too.
Hi Simon,
I will try to find some time to set up a automatic run of nofib on my
buildbot (which is powerful enough) and have it graph the results over
time (and perhaps even email us when a benchmark dips).

Of course automation is great. The pair of hands is still needed to figure out

Hi,
a bit late but here are my comments:
- my main (and in a way ``only'') concern is speed. At some point I'd
like my programs to consistently beat the pants off C ...
This won't happen soon, but when comparing to C it makes a difference
being able to say Haskell is x1.3 slower or x1.4 slo
Oh, PLEASE people. Let's not have another round of bikeshedding about
this AFTER the feature is already implemented!
